The irony here is just downright obnoxious. A little over year ago the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), was found protesting outside the home of an LA truck driver whose house was being foreclosed on. Despite the fact that the man had bought a house he wasn’t ever capable of paying for, ACORN seemed to think he deserved it anyway.

Now, ACORN itself sitting in about 3.3 million in debt –not to a bank, but to Uncle Sam himself, and we’re an awful lot less forgiving than your typical loan officer.

Since 1998 watchdog groups have been reporting cases around the country where ACORN has been responsible for registering thousands of fake voters. The most ridiculous case being in Seattle, where an employee confessed to sitting at home and making up voter names while smoking marijuana, 1800 fake voters were registered. Dozens of cases like this were reported in several states, so much that Ohio banned them from the state entirely, categorizing them with mob and gang activity.

Here in Baltimore, ACORN workers were videotaped filling out tax forms for a prostitute (who was listed under performing arts on the books), and giving her advice on how to deduct a brothel of 15 year-old El Salvadorian prostitutes as child tax credits.

Although it's a little known fact, President Obama actually worked for ACORN back in the 90’s on voter registration campaigns, and even represented them in court. In recent years, however, he downplays his involvement with the organization. 

            Now it appears ACORN can’t even afford to pay the American people back the money used to defraud us as voters. They publicly announced that they were filing for bankruptcy last tuesday. But before you get your hopes up, rumors are already circulating from ACORN exec’s that they are simply reforming under a different name…

Walnut? Pinecone? Buckeye? (I’m sure these people aren’t too creative)

 Regardless of its future, this rotten ACORN has lost its grass roots, and it’s about time it went to the sawmill.
